A celebrity tattooist has joined the fight to help his son's former teacher get potentially life-saving treatment in Germany by auctioning off a once in a lifetime trip to see the Singapore Grand Prix.

Kevin Paul, famous for his appearances on TV and for tattooing pop star Ed Sheeran, is appealing to the public to help teacher Zara Scott, 34, raise nearly £90,000 for specialist treatment for her brain tumour.

Kevin, who's studio is in Melbourne, said: "The way I look at it is, if this was happening to me, I would want people to help so this is why I have decided to help out.

"Zara is a really nice teacher and used to teach my son. She was very caring so it would mean a lot to me if we were able to raise the funds to help her with her treatment.

"The Singapore Grand Prix will be a great experience and the person will meet the drivers and get really involved.

"I would encourage as many people as possible to help this family.

Zara has been a teacher for last 14 years. She worked at Melbourne Primary School before moving to Pear Tree School.

Derbyshire Live reported how her family are hoping to raise £88,000 for specialist treatment after she was diagnosed with her incurable condition back in January, just months after she gave birth to her second child Isaac.

Zara's condition became apparent when she began having headaches in December last year and her partner Matthew Honeyman found her having a seizure. She was later diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumour.
